  • 2019 These Thank-You Cards Came from Students at Reno’S Dorothy Lemelson STEM Academy Elementary School
    THE GOOD NEWS Annual Report to Stakeholders 2019 These thank-you cards came from students at Reno’s Dorothy Lemelson STEM Academy Elementary School. Theirs was one of the first groups to come to the College for our Reading & Robes program, launched in 2019. n putting the nishing touches on this report describing events from 2019, we could not help thinking that 2019 seems like a long time ago. Classroom instruction at the NJC, like virtually all colleges and schools, remains on hold because of the COVID-19 public health emergency. Massive protests continue over police brutality and racial injustice. Political Idivisions within the United States, which many already consider to be the worst since the Civil War, only seem to deepen. In these troubled times, we are heartened by your continuing support of our institution and its mission: to make the world a more just place by educating and inspiring the judiciary. We hope you take encouragement and inspiration from what you read in these pages. Our expanding Reading & Robes program is teaching disadvantaged children how justice is supposed to work and about their civic responsibilities. An NJC alumnus helped make the world a safer place for children in Pennsylvania by helping expose cruel crimes. An alumna in Louisiana is helping young victims of human tracking see a brighter future. In Colorado, NJC judges are leading a coaching program that promises a healthier, more sustainable and expert judiciary. “e arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.” An abolitionist minister spoke these words in 1871.

IN MEMORIAM The Judiciary of Colorado and the legal profession suffered a tremen- dous loss with the death of Colorado Supreme Court Justice James K. Groves. Justice Groves died April 6, 1980, after being hospitalized for a stroke and resulting complications. He was appointed to Colorado's high court by Governor John A. Love in April, 1968. Justice Groves was the first appointee to the court under the merit system of selection.1 As an Associate Justice during his twelve years on the supreme court bench, he authored more than 540 opinions-many of which are recognized as landmark deci- sions. Justice Groves was born on August 29, 1910, in Grand Junction. He attended Mesa College and received his undergraduate degree in 1932 from the University of Colorado. He was graduated with honors from the Univer- sity of Colorado law school in 1935. Following law school, Justice Groves returned to Grand Junction where he began building a reputation as one of the state's best trial attorneys.
